Genesis register sidebar do I need the theme name?

[Philip Gledhill]

'name'        => __( 'After Post', 'sample' ),
'description'    => __( 'This is the after post section.', 'sample' ),

Is 'sample' referring to the Sample theme name...

Theme Name: Genesis Sample

Is the part of the code that says sample just to remind me of where I'm using the code or do I need to include something specific here?

Thanks.

You MUST use a unique i.d for the sidebar (widget)

Code not displaying? Grab it from Github.

Thanks for the quick reply Brad

I understand the 'id' bit, what I don't understand is what sample means in the second and third lines of code below.

'id' => 'after-post',
'name' => __( 'After Post', 'sample' ),
'description' => __( 'This is the after post section.', 'sample' ),
) );


The code is from this page...
http://www.briangardner.com/code/add-after-post-widget/

In the style sheet it says...
Theme Name: Genesis Sample

Not sample.

Is the exact word, sample, significant? And if it is, where did it come from.
Would it make any difference if I put mysample, or sampletheme instead?
